Tools for Teachers

Water Education Program Brochure

CVWD has created an educational brochure that teachers can review to see our offerings for in-class presentations and their standards correlations. 

The Water Wheel
The Water Wheel is an educator newsletter that teachers can subscribe to and receive CVWD education offerings, updates, and opportunities. Please subscribe here!

Classroom Presentations & Activities

Classroom presentations and hands-on water activities are available to all schools and all grades, kindergarten through college, throughout the Coachella Valley Water District service area. Presentations address Common Core and Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). Presentations can often be paired with an activity to enhance the overall learning experience.

For presentations, all we require is a place to set up our equipment, power, and a wall or screen to project onto. We will supply all the materials needed for any activity. We also go to after-school and summer programs. If you are interested in a presentation or activity, please complete the sign-up form.

Project WET Workshop for Teachers

CVWD educators organize and conduct Project WET workshops to groups of 10 or more educators wanting to learn about how to bring water education into their classrooms while meeting Common Core and Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). We recently completed our Fall 2022 workshop. Check back later for details on our 2023 workshop.
